 Resolution Approving Use of State of California Office of Traffic 
Safety Grant Funds in the Amount of $262,400 for Selective Traffic 
Enforcement Program from October 1, 2010 through September 30, 2011 (PD)
 <br>
 Explanation: See enclosed material. Staff Report <br>
 Recommend adoption of Resolution. Resolution  <br>
<br>
 From MPJC <br>

 Are Checkpoints intrusive and an ineffective waste of taxpayer money? 
Saturation patrols are considered more effective, less costly. Why are 
we still going after tax payer money via federal grants to harass 
residents when other more effective tools are available to our police 
for combating DUI infractions? <br>
 San Rafael City has a proposal for 
an additional Office of Traffic Safety Grant for DUI/DL Checkpoints on 
the Agenda for the City Council Meeting. Come and be heard. Say no to 
ineffective checkpoints. Does the city have policy for alcohol on city 
property? How sincere are they when combating alcohol abuse in our 
communities? <br>
